NEW KILLER - THE GHOUL
Killer Power - One-Eyed Terror
SPECIAL ABILITY: Kagune Leap
Use the Power button to charge and launch the Kagune, tentacles that attach to any vertical surface within range and quickly pull The Ghoul forward.
After completing a leap, The Ghoul has a window to perform a second consecutive Kagune Leap or put Kagune Leap into cooldown by using the active ability button.
Kagune Leap enters cooldown once The Ghoul has consumed their leaps, if they leap over a vault or downed pallet, or if the Kagune grabs and leaps at a Survivor.
If The Ghoul’s second consecutive leap targets a Survivor, they will perform a grab-attack. Grab-attacks damage Survivors if they are healthy; inflict Deep Wounds; and leave a Kagune Mark.
Performing a grab-attack also triggers Enraged Mode.
SPECIAL ABILITY: Enraged Mode
While Enraged, The Ghoul can perform up to three consecutive Kagune Leaps and can leap over vaults more quickly if they launch their Kagune at a Survivor.
Enraged Mode remains active while there are Survivors afflicted with Kagune Mark. Marked Survivors will lose their mark if they are fully Mended, or if they are downed.
The Ghoul cannot grab-attack marked Survivors.
Once no marked Survivors remain, a Countdown begins. When the Countdown depletes, Enraged Mode ends. A perfectly timed grab-attack will add extra time to the Countdown. The Countdown is paused while carrying Survivors.
NEW KILLER PERKS
Hex: Nothing But Misery:
- After you damage Survivors 8/8/8 times with basic attacks, a dull totem becomes a hex totem, cursing all Survivors. When you damage a Survivor with a basic attack, they gain 5/5/5% Hindered for 10/12.5/15 seconds. The effects last until the hex totem is cleansed.
Forever Entwined:
- When a Survivor takes damage, gain 1 token, up to 6/7/8. For each token, you pick up, drop and hook Survivors 4% faster.
None Are Free:
- When you hook a Survivor for the first time, gain 1 token, up to 4. When all generators are completed, for each token, all windows and upright pallets are blocked for everyone for 12/14/16 seconds.
